:::::::::: I tend to agree that Americans tie their religion too closely to their politics, but on the other hand, I can understand where he's probably coming from (although I should point out that I don't know what prompted the first post in this section).  A Christian believes that God is the ultimate reality, and therefore that God's standards are more important than anything else more worldly.  Therefore, in comparing two different candidates, the one that most closely follows God's standards is the one that Christians should vote for.  That is, God's standards (such as on moral issues) are not just a minor consideration, but should be a major deciding factor.  To that extent, I would agree with Jpatt.  [[User:Philip J.

:::::::::::What you missed was the conversaion on (the now blocked) [[user:Ema]]'s talk page. She said something about how Obama was going to win, to which Jpatt replied: "Funny how you accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and support Barack Obama." I don't think there's anything wrong to use your faith as a factor in deciding who to vote for, but to presume that ones (clearly at least partially incorrect, as seen by the gay marriage comment on this page) interpretation is infallible is hubris at its best.
